Gunnar Hoglund
Bethel Is Week-end Host
To Nat'l CYF Workshop
Delegates from Baptist Confer-ence
youth groups from coast to
coast are meeting on Bethel's cam-pus
today and tomorrow for a
weekend of inspiration and learn-ing
in the second national Confer-ence
Youth Fellowship workshop.
Chief speaker for the gathering
is the Rev. Gunnar Hoglund of
Chicago, the Conference youth di-rector,
who assumed office last
October 1. Rev. Hoglund is in
charge of coordinating the work of
Conference youth groups through-out
the nation, and supervising
the' publication of materials that
may be used by all of them. He
will speak during the meetings and
also at the Twin Cities CYF rally
to be held at Bethel Baptist Church
in Minneapolis at 3:30 p.m. next
Sunday, December 6. The roster
of speakers for the workshop also
includes Dr. Virgil Olson, Miss Dor-othy
Erickson, Dr. Virginia Grab-ill,
and Rev. Carl Lundquist.
The planning of the entire pro-gram
was done by the national CYF
cabinet consisting of: Rev. Howard
Carlson of Duluth, president; Rod
Erickson, vice-president; Dorothy
Erickson, recording secretary; Dor-is
Moberg, corresponding secre-tary;
and Lee Giddings, treasurer.
Invitations were sent out and over
sixty delegates responded. Most of
these are from the midwest but
there are several delegates from
the western states, from the At-lantic
states, and from Canada.
The workshop began with the
Friday morning chapel in Bethel
College, which was conducted by
Student Wives
Meet Dec. 14
"Christmas in the Christian
Home" will be discussed by three
pastors' wives and a faculty wife
at the student wives' meeting
Dec. 14, beginning at 8 p.m., in the
recreation room of Edgren res-idence.
Mr s . Carl Lundquist, M r s .
Kenneth Kolmodin, Mrs. Arthur El-lison
and Mrs. Elving Anderson
will speak on the problems per-tinent
to the Christian home at
Christmas. Topics include enter-tainment,
decorations, Christmas
cards, and Santa Claus.
The discussion will be opened
to the student wives after the
speakers have presented their
topics.
Mrs. Wendell Meyer, vocal solo-ist,
and instrumental ensemble
will provide the music.
Program arrangements are in
charge of Mesdames Gordon Han-stad,
Clifford. Anderson, and Mor
ris Engstrom.
the CYF, and is continuing through
Friday and Saturday with inspira-tional
meetings and informative
sessions on the most effective ways
of carrying on young people's
meetings, rallies, youth camps, so-cials,
etc. The national officers
'have expressed high hopes for the
success of this workshop. Reports
have been coming in during the
past year of advance made in local
youth fellowships as a result of
new ideas and stimulation received
in last year's workshop.
Innovations are being considered
which are designed to increase stu-dents'
aesthetic apreciation. One
plan is to acquire a three-speed rec-ord
player and records for use in
the dining hall during dinnr
hours. Another plan is for exhibi-tions
of famous works of art on
campus early next year, and also
being formulated are plans for
some scenes from Shakespeare
plays as well as classicals films to
be shown on campus.
By use of the bulletin board, the
cultural council promotes cultural
events in the twin cities, thus urg-ing
an interest in as well as at-tendance
at these cultural activi-ties.
Evening Classes
Start January 5; Five
New Courses Added
Bethel Evening school for 1964
with five new courses will begin
January 5 and run through March
9. Sessions will be held in the col-lege
building consecutive Tuesdays
from 7 through 8:45 p.m.
Courses and respective instruc-tors
are: "Prophecy of the New
Testament" by Dr. Alphin Conrad;
"Church Camping Program" by
Rev. Lee Kingsley; "Daily Vacation
Bible School" by Prof. Esther Sa-bel;
"Typewriting" by Prof. Ellen
Lehr; "The Prospective Pastor's
Wife" by Mrs. Maurice Lawson.
The cost will be $6 per course
with registration on. the evening of
the first class.
Robert Featherstone, director of
the snool, said pamphlets des-cribing
the courses will be avail-able
this week.
Dr. C. E. Carlson spoke Monday in Chapel for the last time in his
official capacity as dean. He told of. his future plans and the purpose of
his new position as Executive Director of the Baptist Joint Committee
on Public Affairs. That office has been set up as a channel for Baptist
considerations of national public affairs.
Dean Carbon said that the purpose of this committee is to coordin-ate
the stream of evangelical Christianity, which has in some measure
neglected to cope with the problems of the day, with the stream of
modern day humanitarianism or social gospel which is aware of these
problems but denies the power of God.
Wendell Anderson, president of
the student senate, presented Dean
Carlson with a leather briefcase,
and expressed his appreciation on
behalf of the student body for all
that Dean Carlson has done for
Bethel.
Besides the Monday gather-ing,
the Carlsons were honored
Sunday evening in a reception at
their home church, Central Baptist
of St. Paul. Dr. Carlson has served
in almost every office, of the church
in the last 22 years, and at present
he is vice-chairman of the church
board. The various departments of
the church presented gifts to the
Carlsons.
Mrs. Carlson was the honored
guest at the faculty wives' smorgas-bord
Christmas party; Tuesday ev-ening
at the home of Professor and
Mrs. Adolf Olson. She was given
a rhinestone necklace and earring
set as a parting gift.

Unwanted visi•t ors
by Barbara Olander
TWo strangers are walking Bethel campus
lately. Let me describe them to you and
see if they are familiar.
One takes advantage of the trusting stu-dent
and the student does not realize to
whoM he is obliged for a mysterious visit
which has left him without his watch or
maybe without his billfold. It is to this
stranger, however, that the student owes
his thanks.
•But there is a second stranger who has
come, of late, to Bethel. And this sinister
person brings a much greater threat than
the first. The two are close friends, the
second one following the first, and they
work hand in hand. The last one brings
thoughtless judgments into students' minds;
he is rash, unkind, and his work can be dev-astating.
Clear and honorable reputations
are often deeply stained and hurt by him.
Sometimes even the course of a person's
life is changed by him. Perhaps you have
guessed their names, have come in contact
with them.
The first is Dishonesty, the second is
Suspicion.
These two are walking among us, and it
seems they have found lodging in an alien
land — Bethel.
.2eite44 to Safrda
Dear Saint Nick,
Say Santa, you can just as well skip that
desk calendar I asked you about. They
pulled a fast one on me and asked another
guy to be the new dean.
You remember how I wrote to you all
about it—how Dean Carlson got a different
job and had to leave. Well, I sort of fig-ured
I had it made. You know I needed a
new part-time job anyway, and so I thought
this would be just fine.
I really thought I had the deal clinched.
I made out two real clever notes and put
them in the suggestion box. One was a
petition signed by fifty of the students and
professors that I should be the new dean.
I typed their names so nobody would sus-pect
forgery. Then I made out a note of
acceptance. I put them in the box together.
Brother if that wasn't a low blow! They
didn't even mention a thing to me. I've
tried to figure out why. There's only one
explanation. They forgot to look in the sug-gestion
box til it was too late. Please re-member
the ice skates, the alarm clock,
and fruit cake.
Hopefully yours,
Ronnie Palosaari

What Do You Say?
by Barbara Port
When asking the question, "What do you
.think about Dean Carlson's leaving?" I got
the following replies:
Gordon Olson, college senior: I hate to
see him go; he's leaving a great vacancy.
He has done a great job.
Gloria Manseau, college senior: Person-ally,
I'm sorry to see him go.
Joanne Bennett, college sophomore: It
will be a great loss to the school, but no
doubt the Lord has greater things ahead for
for him.
Jean Seldon, college sophomore: It will
be a terrific loss to the school, but it is a
great honor for him and for Bethel. It will
difficult to get someone to fill his place.
\ Roger Bergeson, seminary junior: I think
it will be hard to find another Dean Carlson
`because everyone can look to him for coun-sel.
He seems to be able to analyze situa-tions
carefully. He is thorough and consis-tent.
If he runs for President, I'll vote for
him.
Rodney Erickson, seminary junior: I
think the school will have a hard time re-placing
him, because he has been a defin-ite
asset to Bethel. I think he can do for
his new position what he has done for
Bethel. It's hard to say what I want to say.
. Frances Johnson, . college freshman: I
think we're losing a good man, but I think
his call is an important one. He is capable
of his new position •
Wilbur Madsen, seminary senior: The
school is losing a great educator.
Listen and See
by Barbara Olander
"It's too bad his gestures weren't more
natural."
"Did you notice the terrible grammar he
used?"
"Why, those inaccurate statistics he used
should have been left out."
Or maybe this — "That speaker really
doesn't have the ability to hold a college
audience's attention."
These and many other similar remarks
can be heard circulating around Bethel
campus concerning various chapel speakers.
And many times a thought from the great
heart of God is hindered from making its
entrance into our minds because a critical
attitude stands in its way. These state-ments
not only hinder the persons making
them from receiving a blessing but also pre-vent
others from receiving the fullest bene-fit
from those who come to share ideas
with us.
Let's remember, God's prerequisites for
use in His Kingdom are not perfect man-nerisms
or ease of gestures. But God has
chosen each of us to know Him in spite of
our weaknesses, and those who graciously
grant to give us of their time to speak tc,
us of the God we together love and serve,
may know something of Christ that we have
yet to find out. We might listen and see.
Editor's note: Since this is the last issue
of the CLARION in 1953, we of the staff
want to express our appreciation to our
readers for bearing patiently with us in
spite of some mistakes from time to time.
Merry Christmas and a happy new year.
What I Learned
This Quarter
by Stretch
"Where ignorance is bliss, 'tis folly to be
wise."
Thomas Gray
Having spent ten quarters at Bethel I
feel that this last quarter has been by far
the most valuable. I never realized until
recently so terribly much could ever be ac-complished
in so short a period of time.
The whole glorious incident goes to show
what can be accomplished when a student
actually applies the genius that is his.
I am not one to be selfish with my per-sonal
accomplishments. And so, upon the
many requests of several students and pro-fessors,
I have agreed to compile and pub-lish
an exhaustive list of what I have
learned this quarter. This I do with the
hope of inspiring other students who now
might be doing little more than wasting
their time.
1. Lord Byron either was born or died or
did something in 1818.
2. It is a safe policy to be friendly with
big guys — especially football players.
3. Michael Wigglesworth was a real per
son.
4. Denmark opposed the United States'
putting a high protective tariff on fur for
hat manufacturing.
5. You ought to take notes in philosophy
or bear the chagrin of the consequences.
6. McCarthy might not make a good Pres-ident.
7. A beginner should not try to use a
backhand slam.
8. A person can occasionally catch a few
winks in class without detection by shield-ing
his eyes with his hand to give the
appearance of thinking.
9. Socrates went around giving people ad-vice;
they poisoned him.
10. Everybody does not believe in Limbo.
11. Shakepeare believed in love at first
sight.
12. I don't.
13. Silverfish is just another name for
Cockroach.
14. Honest Abe Yokum might get married
in sixteen years.
These fourteen statements are not merely
a sample of what I learned this quarter;
they are what I learned this quarter. Be-sides
the motive of inspiring other students
I also wanted to impress whoever gave me
five dollars for reading poetry last spring
that I am worth it. Incidently, all this is
not true. I had to look up that date about
Byron.
Inspiration to Books -
by Jane Hedberg
At least one of our students has her
name inscribed on the dedication page of
a book.
Petite and charming, dark-haired Mary
Woo, special student from California,
smiled as she admitted that she should
know "How to Get a Husband."
You see, a small but pertinent book
"How to Get a Husband" by Dr. William
W. Orr bears the inscription: "This book
was inspired by a suggestion from my
good friend, Mary Woo."
Dr. Orr, former head of the radio
department of the Bible Institute of Los
Angeles, has authored a series of booklets
on subjects vital to Christian young peo-ple.
During student days at the Bible
institute, Mary worked as head of the

Thought
by President Wingblade
The loveliest thing by far in all of God's
created works is that which streams in
splendor from out the eyes of childhood's
morn. More lovely than the rising star or
rose's richest bloom, or any light that ever
yet was seen on sea or land — is child-hood's
glow that seems to come from out
another world "with trailing clouds of glory
from God, which is our home."
But seeming truth of poetry or of mind
must yield to truth divine when men beheld
the glow of Him who shone upon the world
with childish mein some nineteen hundred
years ago — with light that lit the long
expanse of years to come. What vast im-port
that teeming hour held forth when
first in quiet calm He burst upon the world.
Prophetic tongues had sung His praise mil-lenniums
before that day but now the time
had struck and God was manifest in all
the splendor and the weakness of a child.
But in that weakness strength immeas-urable
would be. That tiny hand would
wield the scepter of the world. Those eyes
would glow like coals of fire with piercing_
light. That voice so seeming weak would
cut with double edge and judge the earth.
But first that heart would break to bring
the healing balm to broken men.
No wonder angel voices pealed His coin
ing forth. No wonder wisest men did wan-der
far to seek Him out. No wonder tyrants
trembled on their cruel thrones. No won-der
loyal hearts who longed for light re-joiced
to see His birth. For God Himself
had come in paradoxic splendor to shine
into our hearts with light reflected in the
face of Christ.
Today His radiance streams through all
the circling years — even unto us who far
had strayed. May those bright beams shine
deep into our hearts — to lighten and to
warm, and then to make us lovingly like
Him. With progress in a thousand ways
that need is all- we want — to have more
of that love of Christ.
But note the recipe so clear and plain
from out His blessed lips. "Except ye turn
and come like as a child ye cannot enter in.
Except in conscious weakness, utmost trust,
devoid of selfish pride, ye come — ye can-not
see my face." And so today, the wisest
ones are those who trust Him most. 'Twas
ever so. The earth still trembles with the
tread of those who, childlike, take Him at
His word and walk in paths of light.
May that be ours this Christmastide—and
then through all the circling years. And so
to friends of Bethel, near and far, we send
the greetings of His star.
mailing department for Dr. Orr. When
asked for the reason behind the inscription
Mary said, "It all started when I casually
remarked at work one day that I was
tired of mailing out the same old books
day after day."
A secretary in response suggested to
Dr. Orr that he write a book just for
Mary. That he did.
With a twinkle Mary said, "I certainly
don't have all the answers, but I do have
six copies of the book."
Interestingly, she also has a companion
booklet titled "How to Pick a Wife."

ProF. Royal Bloom
Becomes Commander
In Naval Reserve
Professor Royal Bloom was re-cently
promoted to the rank of
Commander in the U. S. Naval Re-serve.
This is his third promotion.
In the early part of World War II
he was comissioned as a lieutenant,
and, when he was placed on inac-tive
duty in 1946, he ranked as a
lieutenant commander. During the
war his work consisted mainly of
constructing classification, tests for
enlisted and officer personnel of
the Navy.
At the present time he is a mem-ber
of a research group which
meets at the University of Minnes-ota
twice a month. Other than that
his present command does not in-volve
much activity, although he
must be ready to assume active
duty if he is called at any time.

Wrestling Included
In Winter Sports
Coach Lynn Lundeen has asked
all men interested in wrestling to
turn out on Tuesday and Thursday
afternoons in the wrestling room
of the field house.
Coach Lundeen suggests that
wrestling is a good way for foot-ball
players and anyone who feels
a need of more phyiscal exercise
to keep in top physical condition.
Although there will be no actual
intercollegiate contests this year,
if enough fellows show interest,
there is a possibility of working
out against Augsburg, Macalester,
and the Agricultural school.
Coach Lundeen added that sev-eral
have expressed a desire to
participate in athletics but that the
practice times do not fit their
schedules. This, he said, would be
an excellent opportunity for these
individuals to take part in a sport
since it would be possible for two
or more fellows to get together for
practice any free 'hours they have
available. The room will be open
every day, but he will be able to
work with the fellows only on
Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Intra-mural V-Ball Meets
West and Minn. Leading
by Wayne McArthur
Saturday morning the West and Minnesota will vie to remain
undefeated since the latter triumphed over Michigan-Wisconsin while
the West stomped Illinois. Both pending victors swept through three
gam series and now stand ready -to break into the final winning contest
in this volleyball season.
Ronnie Olson, in charge of in-tra-
murals, says "Participation
was excellent during football but
has declined during volleyball."
He is concerned that Bethel stu-dents
take a much more active
interest in the proposed program
for the year. If all the students
would come out who could, and
he feels there are many Bethel-ites
who are capable, then he is
sure that the intra-mural's pro-gram
would be one of the cam-pus
highlights of the school's
year.
Ron goes on to explain that
volleyball, unlike many sports, is
a game where everyone can par-ticipate
as they play in the series.
Humorously he pointed out that
this Saturday's games will give
students a chance to relax be-fore
quarter finals.
"Foreign students," he urged,
"who would like to play could
play with the East of West
teams."
Hoopsters Open
Falter, 81-60
The Royals' initial contest was
a spotty performance that caught
Bethel on the short end of an
81-60 score, despite the efforts
of Burleson and Redin who threw
in 18 and 17 points respectively.
At times the team showed the
ability to play ball but those mo-ments
were too few.
Burleson started the game off
right with three quick buckets,
but by the end of the first quar-ter
the Royals were five points
down and St. Cloud T. C. was
gone.
Bethel's biggest need is exper-ience.
Most of the men on tne
squad are freshmen and have not
yet adjusted to college-level ball.
The lack of experience showed
most in poor ball handling and
passing. This, however, can be ex-pected
to work itself out as the
team continues to practice.
Two other weaknesses readily
spotted were poor rebounding, es-pecially
on the offensive board,
and lack of a scoring punch from
outside.
Still the spectators who were
there saw a potential team, who,
when worked to their full extent,
could give Bethel one of its best
ball clubs.

Looks for Action
111, --Club In Swing
"Get on the ball," can mean a
number of things to the B-Club
members of Bethel's only letter-men's
organization. The Club,
composed of lettermen from foot-ball,
basketball, track, baseball,
and tennis, met for a brief in-formative
and _ action-provoking
meeting last Monday afternoon
under the leadership of Del Ray
Peterson, basketball coach.
The B-men will take charge of
the concession stand in the gym-nasium
as they annually do for
home games. Proceeds from the
concessions are kept within the
athletic department to help ad-vance
athletical aspirations at
Bethel. -
The functions of the organization
are not only sociable as popularly
believed, but rather they are also
inclusive of advancing athletic ac-tivities,
canvassing home - areas
for prospects in future Royal en-deavor,
and keeping an exaltation
of Jesus Christ in this important
phase of college life at a "school
of Christian scholarship."
Present lettermen still in the
college include: Gene Messenger,

"A Friendly Christian
Atmosphere"
by Don Stipe
Superior spoiled the Royal's first home stand of the '53-54 basketball
season by downing the home-towners 88-65 Tuesday night in the Bethel
field house. Although this marks the first appearance of the Wisconsin
hoopsters on the Bethel floor, their winning ways are not foreign to
Bethelites. They have come out on the long end of the score on every
occasion since the series began in 1948.
Remembering the defeat of last
year, the team began in a deter-mined
manner. After several ex-changes
of the ball, Howie Rek-stad
sunk a free-throw to begin
the scoring. Seconds later Frank
Burleson dropped in a beautiful
set-shot and the Royals led by three
points. However, height began to
pay off as the "Yellow - jackets"
repeatedly cleared the boards. Ac-curate
set-shots by the visiting for-wards
soon reversed the score and
by the end of the initial period,
the Royals were down 18-9.
The home team began to meth-odically
cut down the margin as
center Dale Shellman began to
come down with more rebounds.
Near the enclof the second period
the Royals came within one point
of the visitors, and at half-time the
teams left the floor with Superior
leading 34-30,
The third quarter began with a
flurry of Superior scoring. The
forwards sunk one set-shot after
another. The inside scoring for the
visitors became deadly accurate,
and what they lacked in the first
half, they made up for in the sec-ond.

Perhaps the telling blow was
struck as ace forward Paul Redin
was fouled out mid-way in the
third. period. His smooth ball' hand-ling
under the bucket had been a
deciding factor in the Bethel scor-ing
machine.
At the end of the third quarter
the score was 59-45 for Superior,
and when the contest was all over
the final score stood 88-65 for the
Wisconsin crew.
The scoring was well distributes
among several team members.
Burleson was high man with 15,
Redin next with 12, then Rekstad
and Messenger with 11 each. Other
high scorers included Shellman
with 8, and Erickson with 6.
Coach Peterson decries the fact
that the team lacks height. Along
with this he states that lack of ex-perience
hinders the club, as was
evidenced in the second half.

Bethel Is Week-end Host
To Nat'l CYF Workshop
Delegates from Baptist Confer-ence
youth groups from coast to
coast are meeting on Bethel's cam-pus
today and tomorrow for a
weekend of inspiration and learn-ing
in the second national Confer-ence
Youth Fellowship workshop.
Chief speaker for the gathering
is the Rev. Gunnar Hoglund of
Chicago, the Conference youth di-rector,
who assumed office last
October 1. Rev. Hoglund is in
charge of coordinating the work of
Conference youth groups through-out
the nation, and supervising
the' publication of materials that
may be used by all of them. He
will speak during the meetings and
also at the Twin Cities CYF rally
to be held at Bethel Baptist Church
in Minneapolis at 3:30 p.m. next
Sunday, December 6. The roster
of speakers for the workshop also
includes Dr. Virgil Olson, Miss Dor-othy
Erickson, Dr. Virginia Grab-ill,
and Rev. Carl Lundquist.
The planning of the entire pro-gram
was done by the national CYF
cabinet consisting of: Rev. Howard
Carlson of Duluth, president; Rod
Erickson, vice-president; Dorothy
Erickson, recording secretary; Dor-is
Moberg, corresponding secre-tary;
and Lee Giddings, treasurer.
Invitations were sent out and over
sixty delegates responded. Most of
these are from the midwest but
there are several delegates from
the western states, from the At-lantic
states, and from Canada.
The workshop began with the
Friday morning chapel in Bethel
College, which was conducted by
Student Wives
Meet Dec. 14
"Christmas in the Christian
Home" will be discussed by three
pastors' wives and a faculty wife
at the student wives' meeting

recreation room of Edgren res-idence.
Mr s . Carl Lundquist, M r s .
Kenneth Kolmodin, Mrs. Arthur El-lison
and Mrs. Elving Anderson
will speak on the problems per-tinent
to the Christian home at
Christmas. Topics include enter-tainment,
decorations, Christmas
cards, and Santa Claus.
The discussion will be opened
to the student wives after the
speakers have presented their
topics.
Mrs. Wendell Meyer, vocal solo-ist,
and instrumental ensemble
will provide the music.
Program arrangements are in
charge of Mesdames Gordon Han-stad,
Clifford. Anderson, and Mor
ris Engstrom.
the CYF, and is continuing through
Friday and Saturday with inspira-tional
meetings and informative
sessions on the most effective ways
of carrying on young people's
meetings, rallies, youth camps, so-cials,
etc. The national officers
'have expressed high hopes for the
success of this workshop. Reports
have been coming in during the
past year of advance made in local
youth fellowships as a result of
new ideas and stimulation received
in last year's workshop.
Innovations are being considered
which are designed to increase stu-dents'
aesthetic apreciation. One
plan is to acquire a three-speed rec-ord
player and records for use in
the dining hall during dinnr
hours. Another plan is for exhibi-tions
of famous works of art on
campus early next year, and also
being formulated are plans for
some scenes from Shakespeare
plays as well as classicals films to
be shown on campus.
By use of the bulletin board, the
cultural council promotes cultural
events in the twin cities, thus urg-ing
an interest in as well as at-tendance
at these cultural activi-ties.
Evening Classes
Start January 5; Five
New Courses Added
Bethel Evening school for 1964
with five new courses will begin
January 5 and run through March
9. Sessions will be held in the col-lege
building consecutive Tuesdays
from 7 through 8:45 p.m.

The cost will be $6 per course
with registration on. the evening of
the first class.
Robert Featherstone, director of
the snool, said pamphlets des-cribing
the courses will be avail-able
this week.
Dr. C. E. Carlson spoke Monday in Chapel for the last time in his
official capacity as dean. He told of. his future plans and the purpose of
his new position as Executive Director of the Baptist Joint Committee
on Public Affairs. That office has been set up as a channel for Baptist
considerations of national public affairs.
Dean Carbon said that the purpose of this committee is to coordin-ate
the stream of evangelical Christianity, which has in some measure
neglected to cope with the problems of the day, with the stream of
modern day humanitarianism or social gospel which is aware of these
problems but denies the power of God.
Wendell Anderson, president of
the student senate, presented Dean
Carlson with a leather briefcase,
and expressed his appreciation on
behalf of the student body for all
that Dean Carlson has done for
Bethel.
Besides the Monday gather-ing,
the Carlsons were honored
Sunday evening in a reception at
their home church, Central Baptist
of St. Paul. Dr. Carlson has served
in almost every office, of the church
in the last 22 years, and at present
he is vice-chairman of the church
board. The various departments of
the church presented gifts to the
Carlsons.
Mrs. Carlson was the honored
guest at the faculty wives' smorgas-bord
Christmas party; Tuesday ev-ening
at the home of Professor and
Mrs. Adolf Olson. She was given
a rhinestone necklace and earring
set as a parting gift.
And wise men still seek Him ...

Unwanted visi•t ors
by Barbara Olander
TWo strangers are walking Bethel campus
lately. Let me describe them to you and
see if they are familiar.
One takes advantage of the trusting stu-dent
and the student does not realize to
whoM he is obliged for a mysterious visit
which has left him without his watch or
maybe without his billfold. It is to this
stranger, however, that the student owes
his thanks.
•But there is a second stranger who has
come, of late, to Bethel. And this sinister
person brings a much greater threat than
the first. The two are close friends, the
second one following the first, and they
work hand in hand. The last one brings
thoughtless judgments into students' minds;
he is rash, unkind, and his work can be dev-astating.
Clear and honorable reputations
are often deeply stained and hurt by him.
Sometimes even the course of a person's
life is changed by him. Perhaps you have
guessed their names, have come in contact
with them.
The first is Dishonesty, the second is
Suspicion.
These two are walking among us, and it
seems they have found lodging in an alien
land — Bethel.
.2eite44 to Safrda
Dear Saint Nick,
Say Santa, you can just as well skip that
desk calendar I asked you about. They
pulled a fast one on me and asked another
guy to be the new dean.
You remember how I wrote to you all
about it—how Dean Carlson got a different
job and had to leave. Well, I sort of fig-ured
I had it made. You know I needed a
new part-time job anyway, and so I thought
this would be just fine.
I really thought I had the deal clinched.
I made out two real clever notes and put
them in the suggestion box. One was a
petition signed by fifty of the students and
professors that I should be the new dean.
I typed their names so nobody would sus-pect
forgery. Then I made out a note of
acceptance. I put them in the box together.
Brother if that wasn't a low blow! They
didn't even mention a thing to me. I've
tried to figure out why. There's only one
explanation. They forgot to look in the sug-gestion
box til it was too late. Please re-member
the ice skates, the alarm clock,
and fruit cake.
Hopefully yours,
Ronnie Palosaari

What Do You Say?
by Barbara Port
When asking the question, "What do you
.think about Dean Carlson's leaving?" I got
the following replies:
Gordon Olson, college senior: I hate to
see him go; he's leaving a great vacancy.
He has done a great job.
Gloria Manseau, college senior: Person-ally,
I'm sorry to see him go.
Joanne Bennett, college sophomore: It
will be a great loss to the school, but no
doubt the Lord has greater things ahead for
for him.
Jean Seldon, college sophomore: It will
be a terrific loss to the school, but it is a
great honor for him and for Bethel. It will
difficult to get someone to fill his place.
\ Roger Bergeson, seminary junior: I think
it will be hard to find another Dean Carlson
`because everyone can look to him for coun-sel.
He seems to be able to analyze situa-tions
carefully. He is thorough and consis-tent.
If he runs for President, I'll vote for
him.
Rodney Erickson, seminary junior: I
think the school will have a hard time re-placing
him, because he has been a defin-ite
asset to Bethel. I think he can do for
his new position what he has done for
Bethel. It's hard to say what I want to say.
. Frances Johnson, . college freshman: I
think we're losing a good man, but I think
his call is an important one. He is capable
of his new position •
Wilbur Madsen, seminary senior: The
school is losing a great educator.
Listen and See
by Barbara Olander
"It's too bad his gestures weren't more
natural."
"Did you notice the terrible grammar he
used?"
"Why, those inaccurate statistics he used
should have been left out."
Or maybe this — "That speaker really
doesn't have the ability to hold a college
audience's attention."
These and many other similar remarks
can be heard circulating around Bethel
campus concerning various chapel speakers.
And many times a thought from the great
heart of God is hindered from making its
entrance into our minds because a critical
attitude stands in its way. These state-ments
not only hinder the persons making
them from receiving a blessing but also pre-vent
others from receiving the fullest bene-fit
from those who come to share ideas
with us.
Let's remember, God's prerequisites for
use in His Kingdom are not perfect man-nerisms
or ease of gestures. But God has
chosen each of us to know Him in spite of
our weaknesses, and those who graciously
grant to give us of their time to speak tc,
us of the God we together love and serve,
may know something of Christ that we have
yet to find out. We might listen and see.
Editor's note: Since this is the last issue
of the CLARION in 1953, we of the staff
want to express our appreciation to our
readers for bearing patiently with us in
spite of some mistakes from time to time.
Merry Christmas and a happy new year.
What I Learned
This Quarter
by Stretch
"Where ignorance is bliss, 'tis folly to be
wise."
Thomas Gray
Having spent ten quarters at Bethel I
feel that this last quarter has been by far
the most valuable. I never realized until
recently so terribly much could ever be ac-complished
in so short a period of time.
The whole glorious incident goes to show
what can be accomplished when a student
actually applies the genius that is his.
I am not one to be selfish with my per-sonal
accomplishments. And so, upon the
many requests of several students and pro-fessors,
I have agreed to compile and pub-lish
an exhaustive list of what I have
learned this quarter. This I do with the
hope of inspiring other students who now
might be doing little more than wasting
their time.
1. Lord Byron either was born or died or
did something in 1818.
2. It is a safe policy to be friendly with
big guys — especially football players.
3. Michael Wigglesworth was a real per
son.
4. Denmark opposed the United States'
putting a high protective tariff on fur for
hat manufacturing.
5. You ought to take notes in philosophy
or bear the chagrin of the consequences.
6. McCarthy might not make a good Pres-ident.
7. A beginner should not try to use a
backhand slam.
8. A person can occasionally catch a few
winks in class without detection by shield-ing
his eyes with his hand to give the
appearance of thinking.
9. Socrates went around giving people ad-vice;
they poisoned him.
10. Everybody does not believe in Limbo.
11. Shakepeare believed in love at first
sight.
12. I don't.
13. Silverfish is just another name for
Cockroach.
14. Honest Abe Yokum might get married
in sixteen years.
These fourteen statements are not merely
a sample of what I learned this quarter;
they are what I learned this quarter. Be-sides
the motive of inspiring other students
I also wanted to impress whoever gave me
five dollars for reading poetry last spring
that I am worth it. Incidently, all this is
not true. I had to look up that date about
Byron.
Inspiration to Books -
by Jane Hedberg
At least one of our students has her
name inscribed on the dedication page of
a book.
Petite and charming, dark-haired Mary
Woo, special student from California,
smiled as she admitted that she should
know "How to Get a Husband."
You see, a small but pertinent book
"How to Get a Husband" by Dr. William
W. Orr bears the inscription: "This book
was inspired by a suggestion from my
good friend, Mary Woo."
Dr. Orr, former head of the radio

of
Thought
by President Wingblade
The loveliest thing by far in all of God's
created works is that which streams in
splendor from out the eyes of childhood's
morn. More lovely than the rising star or
rose's richest bloom, or any light that ever
yet was seen on sea or land — is child-hood's
glow that seems to come from out
another world "with trailing clouds of glory
from God, which is our home."
But seeming truth of poetry or of mind
must yield to truth divine when men beheld
the glow of Him who shone upon the world
with childish mein some nineteen hundred
years ago — with light that lit the long
expanse of years to come. What vast im-port
that teeming hour held forth when
first in quiet calm He burst upon the world.
Prophetic tongues had sung His praise mil-lenniums
before that day but now the time
had struck and God was manifest in all
the splendor and the weakness of a child.
But in that weakness strength immeas-urable
would be. That tiny hand would
wield the scepter of the world. Those eyes
would glow like coals of fire with piercing_
light. That voice so seeming weak would
cut with double edge and judge the earth.
But first that heart would break to bring
the healing balm to broken men.
No wonder angel voices pealed His coin
ing forth. No wonder wisest men did wan-der
far to seek Him out. No wonder tyrants
trembled on their cruel thrones. No won-der
loyal hearts who longed for light re-joiced
to see His birth. For God Himself
had come in paradoxic splendor to shine
into our hearts with light reflected in the
face of Christ.
Today His radiance streams through all
the circling years — even unto us who far
had strayed. May those bright beams shine
deep into our hearts — to lighten and to
warm, and then to make us lovingly like
Him. With progress in a thousand ways
that need is all- we want — to have more
of that love of Christ.
But note the recipe so clear and plain
from out His blessed lips. "Except ye turn
and come like as a child ye cannot enter in.
Except in conscious weakness, utmost trust,
devoid of selfish pride, ye come — ye can-not
see my face." And so today, the wisest
ones are those who trust Him most. 'Twas
ever so. The earth still trembles with the
tread of those who, childlike, take Him at
His word and walk in paths of light.
May that be ours this Christmastide—and
then through all the circling years. And so
to friends of Bethel, near and far, we send
the greetings of His star.
mailing department for Dr. Orr. When
asked for the reason behind the inscription
Mary said, "It all started when I casually
remarked at work one day that I was
tired of mailing out the same old books
day after day."
A secretary in response suggested to
Dr. Orr that he write a book just for
Mary. That he did.
With a twinkle Mary said, "I certainly
don't have all the answers, but I do have
six copies of the book."
Interestingly, she also has a companion
booklet titled "How to Pick a Wife."

ProF. Royal Bloom
Becomes Commander
In Naval Reserve
Professor Royal Bloom was re-cently
promoted to the rank of
Commander in the U. S. Naval Re-serve.
This is his third promotion.
In the early part of World War II
he was comissioned as a lieutenant,
and, when he was placed on inac-tive
duty in 1946, he ranked as a
lieutenant commander. During the
war his work consisted mainly of
constructing classification, tests for
enlisted and officer personnel of
the Navy.
At the present time he is a mem-ber
of a research group which
meets at the University of Minnes-ota
twice a month. Other than that
his present command does not in-volve
much activity, although he
must be ready to assume active
duty if he is called at any time.

Wrestling Included
In Winter Sports
Coach Lynn Lundeen has asked
all men interested in wrestling to
turn out on Tuesday and Thursday
afternoons in the wrestling room
of the field house.
Coach Lundeen suggests that
wrestling is a good way for foot-ball
players and anyone who feels
a need of more phyiscal exercise
to keep in top physical condition.
Although there will be no actual
intercollegiate contests this year,
if enough fellows show interest,
there is a possibility of working
out against Augsburg, Macalester,
and the Agricultural school.
Coach Lundeen added that sev-eral
have expressed a desire to
participate in athletics but that the
practice times do not fit their
schedules. This, he said, would be
an excellent opportunity for these
individuals to take part in a sport
since it would be possible for two
or more fellows to get together for
practice any free 'hours they have
available. The room will be open
every day, but he will be able to
work with the fellows only on
Tuesdays and Thursdays.

Intra-mural V-Ball Meets
West and Minn. Leading
by Wayne McArthur
Saturday morning the West and Minnesota will vie to remain
undefeated since the latter triumphed over Michigan-Wisconsin while
the West stomped Illinois. Both pending victors swept through three
gam series and now stand ready -to break into the final winning contest
in this volleyball season.
Ronnie Olson, in charge of in-tra-
murals, says "Participation
was excellent during football but
has declined during volleyball."
He is concerned that Bethel stu-dents
take a much more active
interest in the proposed program
for the year. If all the students
would come out who could, and
he feels there are many Bethel-ites
who are capable, then he is
sure that the intra-mural's pro-gram
would be one of the cam-pus
highlights of the school's
year.
Ron goes on to explain that
volleyball, unlike many sports, is
a game where everyone can par-ticipate
as they play in the series.
Humorously he pointed out that
this Saturday's games will give
students a chance to relax be-fore
quarter finals.
"Foreign students," he urged,
"who would like to play could
play with the East of West
teams."
Hoopsters Open
Falter, 81-60
The Royals' initial contest was
a spotty performance that caught
Bethel on the short end of an
81-60 score, despite the efforts
of Burleson and Redin who threw
in 18 and 17 points respectively.
At times the team showed the
ability to play ball but those mo-ments
were too few.
Burleson started the game off
right with three quick buckets,
but by the end of the first quar-ter
the Royals were five points
down and St. Cloud T. C. was
gone.
Bethel's biggest need is exper-ience.
Most of the men on tne
squad are freshmen and have not
yet adjusted to college-level ball.
The lack of experience showed
most in poor ball handling and
passing. This, however, can be ex-pected
to work itself out as the
team continues to practice.
Two other weaknesses readily
spotted were poor rebounding, es-pecially
on the offensive board,
and lack of a scoring punch from
outside.
Still the spectators who were
there saw a potential team, who,
when worked to their full extent,
could give Bethel one of its best
ball clubs.

Looks for Action
111, --Club In Swing
"Get on the ball," can mean a
number of things to the B-Club
members of Bethel's only letter-men's
organization. The Club,
composed of lettermen from foot-ball,
basketball, track, baseball,
and tennis, met for a brief in-formative
and _ action-provoking
meeting last Monday afternoon
under the leadership of Del Ray
Peterson, basketball coach.
The B-men will take charge of
the concession stand in the gym-nasium
as they annually do for
home games. Proceeds from the
concessions are kept within the
athletic department to help ad-vance
athletical aspirations at
Bethel. -
The functions of the organization
are not only sociable as popularly
believed, but rather they are also
inclusive of advancing athletic ac-tivities,
canvassing home - areas
for prospects in future Royal en-deavor,
and keeping an exaltation
of Jesus Christ in this important
phase of college life at a "school
of Christian scholarship."
Present lettermen still in the
college include: Gene Messenger,
Paul Redin, Harold Erickson, How-ard
Johnson, Al Christianson,
Fred Thomas, Wayne Blomgren,
Don Quarnstron, Ron Palosaari,

"A Friendly Christian
Atmosphere"
by Don Stipe
Superior spoiled the Royal's first home stand of the '53-54 basketball
season by downing the home-towners 88-65 Tuesday night in the Bethel
field house. Although this marks the first appearance of the Wisconsin
hoopsters on the Bethel floor, their winning ways are not foreign to
Bethelites. They have come out on the long end of the score on every
occasion since the series began in 1948.
Remembering the defeat of last
year, the team began in a deter-mined
manner. After several ex-changes
of the ball, Howie Rek-stad
sunk a free-throw to begin
the scoring. Seconds later Frank
Burleson dropped in a beautiful
set-shot and the Royals led by three
points. However, height began to
pay off as the "Yellow - jackets"
repeatedly cleared the boards. Ac-curate
set-shots by the visiting for-wards
soon reversed the score and
by the end of the initial period,
the Royals were down 18-9.
The home team began to meth-odically
cut down the margin as
center Dale Shellman began to
come down with more rebounds.
Near the enclof the second period
the Royals came within one point
of the visitors, and at half-time the
teams left the floor with Superior
leading 34-30,
The third quarter began with a
flurry of Superior scoring. The
forwards sunk one set-shot after
another. The inside scoring for the
visitors became deadly accurate,
and what they lacked in the first
half, they made up for in the sec-ond.

Perhaps the telling blow was
struck as ace forward Paul Redin
was fouled out mid-way in the
third. period. His smooth ball' hand-ling
under the bucket had been a
deciding factor in the Bethel scor-ing
machine.
At the end of the third quarter
the score was 59-45 for Superior,
and when the contest was all over
the final score stood 88-65 for the
Wisconsin crew.
The scoring was well distributes
among several team members.
Burleson was high man with 15,
Redin next with 12, then Rekstad
and Messenger with 11 each. Other
high scorers included Shellman
with 8, and Erickson with 6.
Coach Peterson decries the fact
that the team lacks height. Along
with this he states that lack of ex-perience
hinders the club, as was
evidenced in the second half.
